Welcome :-)

The vtr is a 1.6 8 valve and the vts is a 1.6 16 valve

[GirlMechanic21]

so if i was getting a 1.5 desire its neither vtr or vts ? thanks by the way x

[Saxotim]

a 1.5 desire will be the 1.5 diesel engine in desire spec.

Nope, a VTR is a 1.6, 8 valve and the VTS is a 1.6, 16 valve.

No may have vtr or vts stickers but wouldn't actually be a vtr/s .

Where you from?

Is this one you're looking at red by any chance?

Welcome to the forum anyway, give me a shout if you need anything done, especially lowering as the torsion bars are tricky.

How did you know it was red !? and also what sort of mushroom filter should i get ??

[KrisB]

So it's red, lowered and has the VT arches and bumper?

I've worked on it... raised the torsion bar as it was waaay too low.

Are you buying it off someone called 'Doug coleman' or his son?

[GirlMechanic21]

some people convert to 8v so when you lift the bonnet its hard for the untrained eye to tell a conversions been carried out in a 1.1

hi OP btw :)

Thanks, wondered this for a bit.

Although if your insured as a 1.1, you get pulled over by a traffic officer, they'll know
